Very easy to file claims though the process is a bit long to see what gets paid. Like most insurance companies there are treatments that they do not pay. DIsappointed in what was not covered for my puppy his first year of life considering I purchased the best plans with minimal deductible. 2 tier system, I dont care for, but i have not compared side by side to other companies yet. Read the fine print for what is covered, many things are not. I dont think they would be my first choice after knowing what i know.

Excellent service

It was very easy to file a claim for my pets hospital visit. They were able to reimburse me for what my policy said was covered. I am very satisfied with my experience.
